Five Specialties, One Weekend
The course is structured so you complete one open‑water training dive per specialty after a briefing with your SSI instructor, giving you hands‑on experience across five different specialties without committing to full specialty courses up front.
A Compact, Skill‑Focused Weekend
Karleyth Diving runs the Advanced Open Water Diver course over a three‑day program that begins with a Friday evening dusk/night dive and continues with two dives on Saturday and two final dives — including the deep dive — on Sunday.
Upgrade Flexibility on Deep Dives
The Sunday dives, including the required deep dive, can be upgraded to boat dives for a small fee purchased at checkout, giving you the choice to extend the experience and access different sites.

What the Course Feels Like
The program moves deliberately from briefing to water: an evening session and dusk/night dive opens the course, then two dives on Saturday consolidate new skills, and a final day centred on the deep dive completes the five specialty experiences — all framed to let you explore advanced training while retaining freedom to complete full specialties later.
